(The girls are required to attend all the school games and sometimes their attendance is part of their grade.) What are sdme of the reasons for joining clubs organized to boost school spirit? The boosters uniform is really expensive and incidentals come up every week. Some families couldnt afford this because it would put them in a financial bind." Boosters is a combination of prestige and gaining attention fronr others while at school Wearing the orange uniform couldnt help but draw attention. Girls join for the spotlight and the fame only," states Lou Ann Whitlock, Murray High senior and Booster officer. I joined Boosters mainly I because my friends did. have always wanted to be a member, because I had been upset with other clubs who didn t boost school spirit, states Colleen Casaday, Murray senior. I have always wanted to jom and be with a bunch of girls who have fun together. You can't print how much it means to me, 'because it is just too neat!" states Olympus High junior, Caren Hatcher. As far as grades go, pep club doesn't change anything. If I didn't have pep club, I would probably find some way from doing homework," states Heidi Amudsen, Olympus High junior. In order to keep my grades up I had to learn to budget my time between pep club, studying and working. I joined so I could represent my school because it shows school spirit and school spirit makes the school better and you feel like you are a part of the school, aptly asserts Glenna Webber, Olympus High senior.
